What reading level is The Life of Count Lyof N. Tolstoï book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He began to attend punctually the services, and every morning he retired to his room in order, as he expressed it, to commune with God. He made a pil- grimage on foot to the Optin Monastery near Kaluga.
He lost much of his former gayety and evidently strove to cultivate a gentler and humbler spirit.
The same phenomenon was noticed by his servant, Aldksei Arbuzof. Formerly, whenever the priest came to see his Aunt Yilshkova and went through his cere- monies with holy water and incense, he invari...ably stayed out until the priest had departed ; but on one occasion a priest named Vasily Ivdnovitch from the Tula Seminary was detained at Ydsnaya Polyana by a severe snowstorm, and Tolstoi got into a conversation with him which lasted all night. "From that time," says Arbuzof, "Tolstoi became very thoughtful," and when the next Lent came round he said he was going to perform his devotions and prepare to receive the communion; and from that day he seldom missed a Sunday, so that the whole village was surprised and wondered what the priest had told the count to make him so suddenly fond of attending church.
